Brick, age and weather on Brentwood chimneys
Eighties and nineties houses have masonry chimneys with cracked crowns and prefab units past their service life; the camera tells which repair is real.
Under trees the chimney cap is what keeps the squirrels and the leaves out of the flue, and the inspection checks it first.
The chimney’s construction — masonry with a clay liner, a prefab metal flue in a chase, a converted gas unit — decides the inspection and the repair, and the sweep names which it is.
Houses with several chimneys have several crowns, caps and flashings, and the inspection covers them all with the roof; the leak is usually at the flashing.
The site affects the chimney at the top — trees that drop into the flue, wind off the water that drives rain into the cap — and the inspection starts with the cap and the crown.

What sends Brentwood homeowners to the fireplace
A lot of the housing stock in East Nashville and Germantown has original clay-lined flues that were never sized for a modern insert, which is the most common reason we recommend relining.
- Birds, squirrels or nesting noise
- Water staining on the wall beside the hearth
- Crumbling mortar or brick above the roofline
- A damper that will not open or seal
Closing the damper too early. Shutting it while embers are still live pushes carbon monoxide into the room. Wait until the firebox is cold.
